Aftab keen on reprising Kapoor role

Aftab Shivdasani has revealed that he hopes to take on Anil Kapoor's lead role from the 1987 hit Mr India.

Shivdasani, who played an orphan in the original film, declared that he hoped to be cast if director Shekhar Kapoor produces a sequel as has been rumored.

The 31-year-old told IANS: "There is one role that I really wish to do in my career and that is to play Anil Kapoor's character in Mr India. I wish I could do that. It was a great role and a great film."
